Ill w I r VI What Mr. Wilcox says: I know that we have four of the hest cars on the American market. The Standard Six, the National, the Badger and the Regal are unsurpassed in in their class. Our factories back us in guaranteeing to keep these cars in perfect repair one year for $1.00 a week to each customer. If they are not as we represent themuhe buyer may return' them and their money will be cheerfully refunded. Whaf 1 r. Pilanf says: ASST. UKX. AOT. INTERNATIONAL. HARVKSTKR CO. jj- The Auto Show has been a winner for the I. H. C. idster. Our show room has been full of dealers all week. and our sales have been large. The I. H. C. roadster is the best car on, the market for the money. It is the easiest rider, finest finished arid classiest car of its kind in Omaha. These roadsters are built in both pneumatic and solid tires, and without a doubt, are the supreme product of the com pany in the way of power-drawn vehicles. 1 r VI, What Mr; Drummond says: Every automobile dealer knows nnd talks (lie good points of the ear he represents, but when an honest competitor told us that the White Gasoline engine in our car was long points ahead of any thing at the show, it was much appreciated for we know of no bet ter values for the money than the White Co. products, which in clude the White Gasoline car and the well known White Steamer. Our large 5-passenger, elegant Woods Electric Brogham was the highest priced electric in the show, and when you consider that the W oods Co.'s weekly pay roll is over $6,(XX) and that you have to wait nearly two months for the delivery of a car, it shows how the product is appreciated. r What Mr. Kimball says: The Stevens-Duryea and Cadillac "30" at our exhibit has met with the most gratifying results. " A special interest was taken in the moving exhibit of the Cadillac "30" chassis. m - , m '9u.

In 1907 a small number of Brush run abouts were manufactured, but the entire year may be said to have been one of de velopment and adaptation. Thus, through the last two seasons the Brush Runabout company has been working steadily toward the perfection of the original Ideal. The 1910 car represents the consummation of the first plans of Brush and Brlsijoe. In the manufacture of the car the policy of high grade workmanship was estab lished. Over $250,000 worth of high grade and efficient machine tools comprise thi Brush equipment In the machine Hhoi alone. The hlghent grade Of workman ha been secured and the whole effort has bcei toward standardisation and efficiency. The machined parts of the car are accurate to the thousandth of an Inch, thus eliminating expense and Inaccuracy In assembling and Insuring the best results when the car is put In use. Denlse Bark&low and George Redlck have placed the Packard truck among the firsl in this section. Dewltt & Knott have done heavy work with the Cole, thirty this week. W. t. Huffman has been busy all week taking orders for the Interstate. C. F. Louk had a bunoh of them at the show. The Harmon led his list. Then the Halladay, Haynea and Empire. Iouk has the reputation of being one of the best Balcmnon in the country. The Brush has been mnde popular In this part of the country by T. O. Northwall. This is one of the greatest little cars In the market and makes friends whenever It performs. Th Firestone-Columbus is a new car In this market. It is handled by Raclne Sattley Co. This concern Is pushing the car and It la destined to be one of the well known cars. Wlllard Hosford has spent a busy .week showing the Velle and keeping up his work as an officer in the Auto associa tion, and as one of the managers for John Deere Plow company. Hosford didn't have time to be 111, although for sever 1 days he might have been a sick man. The Klsaell car made friends by th. hundreds. Wallace had one of the prettiest cars in tho Auditorium In the Stearns. The farter car was admired by many during the show. The E. M. F.

Ed Estill of the Derlght Automobile company passed the week of the show under a real western cowboy hat. Some one Intimated that Estill was after the farmer trade. Among the Omaha dealers who will at tend the auto show In Sioux City this week are Manager Ooffeen of Kaelno-Kat-tley and President Wilcox of the Standard Auto company. Bine its inception the Chalmers-Detroit company has tripled I la manufacturing fa cilities. Originally there was but one build ing, GOO by 00 feet; now there are three, the third one not yet completed. All of these buildings are four stories high. In the new building 1150,000 worth of new machinery will be Installed, and In this building over 1.000 motors n:id gear sets for the 110 car? will be manufactured. The company built S.l.-iO cars fcr tho 130 season, and It is ex pected that 5.000 will bs turned out during the 1910 season. Deliveries for 1!10 began last July, nnd at present the capacity Is thirty-five to forty-five per day. The fac tory floor space totals more than 640,000 nqunre feet, exclusive of numerous ware houses and testing sheds, etc. The 8an Francisco branch of the Frank- 1U Automobile company, an organization with ten branches for the sale of automo biles made by the H. II. Franklin Maniii l facturing company, now occupies the en tire building at 4os Uolden Gate avenue, t'ntll recently only a part of the building was used by the branch. A repair shop, showroom and offices are provided. J. F. McDaln Is munager of the branch. Franklin motor cars of 110 model are fitted with a single system of ignition, that of the Bosch high-tension magneto, which the II. H. Frankliu Manufacturing com ! pany believes will eventually be the only i system. It has been found that out of a total number of 3 models of foreign au tomobiles are equipped with this system. Only seventy-nine use the old double sys tem; only thirteen use the low-tension magneto. Over 57 per cent, or more than all the other systems combined, have high tension tingle Ignition. What Mr. Freeland Says: The show has been a proud success with us so far as sales go. We have shown the Midland and Mason to those who have riot seen them before and the universal opinion is that they surpass all cars in their class. We will show at our salesroom the Midland Chassis model L, the next 10 days as well as. the mounted Mason engine. " t . v , - : j:. - 1 S ' ' I mihm '"" 11 11 'UllJUH h-.lr iliiiiilMiri,i What Mr. Herring Says; I am more and more convinced that the Reo is withont a peer in its class of machines. I am satisfied that it will stand more hard work, will last longer, and will cost less to keep, than any car made. Nobody disputes the reliability, grace and ease of the Ford, while the Premier is a grand car with wonderful records to its credit. I sell these cars and take great pride in doing so. wnaf Mr. look says: ' 4 I demonstrated at the show in my exhibit I j ot cars that 1 am prepared to meet the wishes of those f &rJ who wish the best cars and those who do not care to expeuu mucn ior a maciune The Marmon is luxurious, no better made. The Haynes is what the business man wishes. T.he Halladay meets the demand of the man who wants just as much as money will buy, while the Kmpire is the car that anybody can own. You needn't go further to be pleased. I have the winners. Get my catalog. Phone for demonstration. What Mr. Dewitt says: The interest shown in Cole Cars dur ing ths show has proven us to be right when we said the Cole "30" is the best that can be built for the price, best materials, best workmanship, careful adjustment of all parts. A car of superb and silent service. No noise, no trouble, no repair bills. A demonstration is our strongest argument. 0k
